There's more fire and passion for creating, loving, expressing yourself, and having fun this month, dear Cancer, than there has been for some time. There is also an inclination to impulsiveness and possibly conflict if issues of ego and attention are allowed to dominate. Even so, it's been awhile since your romantic and creative worlds have been especially exciting, and you tend to radiate more health and vigor in August. As long as you watch carefully for risk-taking with money and even with your heart, you can have a satisfying month. Treat yourself well and guard your light. Channel excess energy into exercise, dance, or music. For some of you, a romance could heat up, but if you've been harboring some resentments, which is quite likely with Saturn visiting your romance sector for some time now, then these can emerge with some force. Practice moderation and self-discipline while also following your heart for best results this month, also keeping in mind that the trick to following your heart is to first know your heart. There is a lot of power this month, and on some level, all year, when it comes to earning and attracting the resources you need to live more comfortably. Until mid-September, however, there is a perhaps equal impulse to spend or even squander what does come in. Keep that under control, and you stand to gain a lot in terms of security and a stronger sense of comfort and abundance. Be sensible when it comes to managing your money and possessions. Your mind is certainly all set to take care of business this month, although as August progresses, developing your skills and expanding your interests can begin to take precedence. Ideas to increase income can be golden this month, but practical details will need to enter the picture before you really put them into action. You're just a little too impulsive for the time being. Some recent ideas can be laid to rest after the realization comes that they were too impractical or impossible to carry through, but others are worthy of your attention. You are learning about your self-worth these days, and learning to expect more respect from others. Many of you will be carrying yourselves with a little more dignity now, and this helps to attract positive people and circumstances to you. Be sure to discuss finances, assets, and security matters with trusted people or advisors now, as it can be very much to your advantage.
